I Should have just Stayed in Bed!

When I got up, I had this idea that today was going to be awesome, but then the day began.
It started out with little things, you know the things that piss you off but if you said them out loud, people might laugh. For that matter, under different circumstances, you might laugh.
I was running late to start, but then I walked out the door without finishing my makeup, which would be fine except half done make up looks worse than none at all! Looking like a clown, I realize that I also forgot my lunch. No problem, I thought, I have some money to eat out today. Even better, I can meet my boyfriend for lunch in town! That will be nice…
I clock out at 1229, run to my car, get into town, and OH YEAH! Town at this time is a mad house! I forgot cause I don’t normally go here! So, I finally get to the restaurant at 1255 (normally it’s 7 minutes away!), I hurry and park on the street and run in to meet him. Here’s the one good part—the food was delicious—even though I had to scarf it down. I’m running late (again!) and I run out to my car at 125 ,my hour lunch is almost over! I get to the car and GREAT; a parking ticket. I forgot that I had to feed the meter! Poo! (I cried here). So, while crying, I’m driving fast, but not fast enough to get another ticket. I get to the lot and I scan my parking pass and it doesn’t work. It’s never not worked before! So, the guy says, “Well, if it won’t work I’m going to have to charge you.” I look in my purse and find two measly dollars that will not cover the $6 he’s asking for. So, crying again, I rush off to the nearest atm and take out cash. At this point, it’s 150 and I’ve missed a meeting. I rush back, trying to hold back my sobs as I hand him the fresh $20, then screech into the nearest parking spot. The whole walk there, I’m cursing, crying, and throwing a fit because, at this point, I don’t want to go back to work AT ALL!
Well, I went in, cleaned myself up, hydrated, and tabulated my bill; food was $36, ticket was $11, and parking was $6. This lunch from hell cost me $53!
I learned my lesson—I’m packing from NOW ON!!!!

We all need to vent sometimes. That was mine, now I’m moving on.
I hope we all have a better day!

Love & Happiness,
